The great sake adventure

by Greg Krehbiel on 26 July 2010

Yesterday I got my koji kin, sake yeast, a big bag of short grain rice, and some (really simple) equipment to steam the rice.

I’m going to try to follow the detailed “how to make sake at home” instructions on this page. (Notice how I got all the appropriate keywords into that link, just to be kind to Mr. Taylor.)

Once I get through a bunch of blasted car-related chores I need to do I will embark on the homebrew sake adventure. Stay tuned.

My first batch will be regular sake, just to see how it all works. (And because I like regular sake.) My wife wants me to make girl-friendly sake — flavored, carbonated stuff. That may be round two.

    Good luck. Sounds like an amazingly involved project. Since the one time I tried Sake I didn’t care for it, I don’t think I’ll go to the trouble.

    OTOH, if yours is good, I just might. ;-)
